Lena Horne — Its Mad Mad Mad

It's a mad, mad, mad, mad world In France the girls wear scanties While on lamb chops they put panties I'm telling you it's a mad, mad, mad, mad world A Japanese named Luey Says the Chinese hate chop suey Without a doubt It's a mad, mad, mad, mad world The only thing you are sure of Is that nothing is sure Have a ball, live it up, only fools give it up Toujours the amour, but toujours So be a happy gaffer Be a screamer, be a laugher Let boys be gay and say, "What the hey" It's a mad, mad, mad, mad world My dear old Uncle Herman Says that French Toast should be German Jawohl, that's right It's a mad, mad, mad, mad world I know it may sound jerky But in Turkey who eats turkey Yes, yes, confess It's a mad, mad, mad, mad world Out traffic is so congested Mass confusion on wheels But Detroit is adroit, what they'll do in Detroit Is make bigger automobiles So be a happy fellow Be a clown, boy, Punchinello Get off the shelf and enjoy yourself It's a mad, mad, mad, mad It's a mad, it's a mad, it's a mad, it's a mad world!
